John Deere has not yet released any offical information. According to spec list, of which an image is also circulating online, the electric tractor has over 680 hp.
The images show that the concept tractor is equipped with tracks.
The machine should be able to work fully autonomous. What’s also remarkable is the fact that the machine is equipped with an articulated steering system, where a disc harrow is bolted on directly to the tractor.
